I have installed a new 4.11 server that has the following equipment <br>
dual adaptec 2940 u/w controllers with a seagate scsi dat and two 2<br>
gig seagate u/w hard drives.<br>
problem:with the system duplexed and the backup scheduled it will fall out of mirror if i stop the backup the mirroring is fine.<br>
The backup software is backup exec. also when the scheduled backup runs it will backup the first night then on second night give error reading tape /or check cabling. I have changed the controllers with no change and if i schedule multiple backups every 15 min backing up small amounts of data there is no problem. Thank You for any input.
 
So far we took one controller out and every thing works fine. we will probably wait a month and put a new controller to resetup the duplex.We will know then which is the cause ie controller or duplexing in novell
